This is one of Gramercy Tavern's biggest
sellers. The blackberries were cleaned, placed in a covered
pitcher, sprinkled with sugar and soaked with rum. Licor 43 is
the perfect compliment to the mellow sweetness of the rum and
tartness of the blackberries. Echte Kroatsbeere Blackberry
Liquer is preferrable because it uses all natural ingredients.
It is possible to substitute blackberry brandy.

Makes two 5 oz drinks and lots of blackberries

.25 cup of sugar

16 oz dark rum

2 oz Echte Kroatsbeere Blackberry
Liquer

2 oz licor 43

2 pints rinsed blackberries

4 oz dark rum

cocktail glasses

Lime Sour Mix

The Drunken blackberries need at
least one hour to soak, but one week is preferrable, at least 24
hours main, c'mon. The leftover berries can be refrigerated for over
3 months. To prepare the blackberries, place the blackberries in a
canning jar or other container with a tight fitting lid. Add the
sugar, seal the container, and gently rotate the container to mix
the sugar and blackberries. Add the rum and the Licor 43, and rotate
some more. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice and rum, sour mix, and
blackberry liquer. Shake until mixture is frothy. Place a few ice
cubes into the cocktail glasses and add 3-4 drunken blackberries
each. Pour the daiquiri over the ice and blackberries,
serve.
